ok, and sorry, i havent been painting them. Mustangs come in so many different colors, i would have to have some paint in every color here to be able to make everybody happy. it would also cost me a ton so the price would have to go way up. i have been telling people the easiest way to get them painted would be to wait a while until you are gettting something else painted like a bumper and have the shop do the keyhole plug at the same time. they would hardly charge you anything extra. you can also buy cans of spraypaint in your color. buy some primer, color, and clear and you could do it yourself in no time at all. you could always just take the plug to a shop and see what they would charge you. my guess would be around 50 for just that though.

These are pretty cool...but dude, there is no WAY a shop would charge $50 to paint that. Its like painting a quarter!

wow, this would look great on mine. It's silver already so it would match well right away.

ford: 65 (he charges a flat 65 for any real small jobs)

they almost all charged about 1/2 an hour labor + paint. since it is bare aluminum they have to prime and sand the thing so it takes a little bit of work.
if you guys can find a pro to do it cheaper then thats awesome, i want you to be able to do it as cheap as possible...around here though, i have had a hard time finding a good place to do it cheap.
